A young officer in Napoleon's Army pursues a mysterious woman to the castle of an elderly Baron. Despite having Jack Nicholson as it's main star 'The Terror' is a boring 60's horror flick that goes nowhere and despite a good cast for the time that it was released and talented people in front and behind the camera the end result is a bland horror movie with no substence inside it. (0/10)
... View MoreThis movie has a great story line. It also has great acting it also has great special effects 5 is a good ratting but this is such a good movie that 5 is underrating it. I give 10 out of 10. This movie is better then The Exorcist. And that is not easy to do. This is one of the scariest movies of all time. It a ghost story and it is very scary. I need more lines and I am running out of things to say. See this movie. It is a great movie. Great movie great movie great movie great movie great movie great movie great movie. See it. It is one of the best horror movies of all time. If it does not scary you then no movie will. Frankenstine (1931) is better but still this is great movie.
... View MoreJust seen this movie. I have to say that I like Corman's work with minimal budget and this movie is just one of those. It is really incredible to see Jack Nicholson even before "Ride in the Whirlwind" and Karloff at the end of his career. For a movie shot with only 6(!) actors it is very nice done. Although it has a cliché story for horrors about undead, development of the story is nice. Its cinematography is also done nice. It's the definitive cream of B-movies and cream of Corman's production(It's made for a few days on a set of his past film, "Raven"). The scenes with Nicholson and the woman are straight out of the creepiest and most mysterious in Corman's work.
... View MoreIt's been many years since I've seen this one and I've just watched it again. I found the film quite interesting, mysterious and worth watching. I grew up on films like this so naturally I enjoy this type of horror flick.Now for a film that had 5 directors and was pieced together the movie turned out to be a good ghost story. Honestly I've seen this film before and I never knew that it had 5 directors and was pieced together - I just found that out recently.This is one of those films I call "quietly thrilling" meaning there is not a lot of action for the thrills but it has subtly thrilling moments with a bit of suspense and an air of mystery.I can say this movie is a must see for fans of Boris Karloff and Jack Nicholson. Another film starring both of these wonderful actors is a comedy-horror called "The Raven (1963) " - so break out the popcorn and make it a double feature! 8/10
